Piers Nivans (Spoiler Warning)
Before you read, know that I've accepted the character's death. If they've chosen to keep it that way, I'm fine with that. That said, part of me believes he's still alive.
His death was technically off-screen so that leaves a nice window of opportunity for the writers to keep him alive. A fan accumulated detailed theories (read here http://bit.ly/LmqQQh) which makes that remote chance of his survival possible, with break downs of the pros and cons. Heck I'll post that link on their facebook wall if that's what it takes. Of course they're just theories in the end but one has to wonder if Piers' really is dead.
Many appreciated his character like the core Resident Evil characters. It's for that reason his death was not an easy scene to endure. The story did a great job in enveloping viewers/players into the idea that Piers would take over Chris Redfield's mantle. Having grown up with Chris after all the years, Piers would have been the perfect choice to move the franchise forward while retiring Chris' character.
Out of all the endings, his was clearly the most heroic. I understand that reviving his character would take that impact away but heck, I felt that way for Jill when she threw herself out the window with Wesker in RE5. But in the end, she was alive. Ok so it was set-up that she was alive but still. It wouldn't be the first time Capcom revived a dead character from the grave in the series.
What do you guys think? It'd be completely fair if you disagree. If you strongly support the idea of Piers' return, DO SOMETHING by letting them know (links listed below). PROVE to Capcom that YOU WANT this. It can be as simple as one sentence saying "We want Piers Nivans back!".
And while you're at it, demand the BIOHAZARD Marhawa Desire Manga for a NORTH AMERICAN release (or wherever you live). Fans of Piers Nivans who do not know what that is may want to look it up.
